eri451: did you get your answer? I belive the newer chromium disables installing extensions by default. To renable this you have to add some config to /etc/chromium.d/ to add the correct flag to chromium to install/update extensions by default

i really haven't been keeping up. stretch is in full freeze!
aotaointbin 2017-02-22 10:48:32
but jessie still feels so new :P
missmbob 2017-02-22 10:48:59
aotaointbin: just 212 bugs remaining :P
eri451 2017-02-22 10:49:27
somiaj: thanks, someone not on this channel told me to start with --enable-remote-extensions
eri451 2017-02-22 10:50:18
but this way it's persistent right?
somiaj 2017-02-22 10:50:23
eri451: correct, that will be the flag. Now you can put a config file in /etc/chromium.d/ with CHROMIUM_FLAGS="$CHROMIUM_FLAGS --enable-remote-extensions" so it is loaded by default on your system.
somiaj 2017-02-22 10:50:38
eri451: and hopefully I got the variable correct, check the README or other files in that directory to be sure
eri451 2017-02-22 10:51:15
somiaj: thanks so much
eri451 2017-02-22 10:53:50
somiaj: that worked perfectly
eri451 2017-02-22 10:54:29
is it a debian policy not to touch the defaults
eri451 2017-02-22 10:55:53
in such case e.g.
somiaj 2017-02-22 11:15:19
eri451: what do you mean by not touch? Debian provides defaults but users can configure as they choose
lizzie 2017-02-22 11:17:05
if you mean, "do debian packages have custom configs and not just copies of upstream's default config," yes

hi guys, I am following a guide. step 1. Create one 100Mb primary partition. Set the bootableflag. step 2. Create an extended partition with the rest of the disk.
sqarzz 2017-02-22 11:23:00
this was easy
sqarzz 2017-02-22 11:23:04
now step 3
sqarzz 2017-02-22 11:23:10
Inside the extended one, create another partition.
sqarzz 2017-02-22 11:23:17
not sure how i have to get this done in fdsik
sqarzz 2017-02-22 11:23:19
fdisk
mtn 2017-02-22 11:23:43
sqarzz, why not use gparted from a live disk?
zykotick9 2017-02-22 11:24:44
sqarzz: create "logical" partitions, inside the extended one
zykotick9 2017-02-22 11:25:47
sqarzz: and any instructions including the step "set the bootableflag" are suspect IMO...
sqarzz 2017-02-22 11:26:42
so i've created partition 1 and 2 using the whole space
teraflops 2017-02-22 11:26:42
sqarzz: hmm, which "guide" if youre using bios/mbr setting the bootable flag is useless, and you'll only want an extended partition if you plan having more then 4 partitions
teraflops 2017-02-22 11:28:09
also having a separated boot partition can be arguable if you're not using UEFI
teraflops 2017-02-22 11:28:35
a "guide" always scares me^
sqarzz 2017-02-22 11:28:41
okat the last one was a logical partition
sqarzz 2017-02-22 11:28:55
kept adding a primary, hence that didn't work
sqarzz 2017-02-22 11:29:00
thx teraflops
sqarzz 2017-02-22 11:29:28
i'm following this guide in order to remove fde from a system i want to import on linode
teraflops 2017-02-22 11:29:32
zykotick9: that's fine, I bet he's not setting up encrypted lvm
